Natural And Effective Cough Relief Without Side Effects
Everyone occasionally gets a cough. And, while coughing can be annoying, it does serve a positive
purpose. Coughing is a reflex started by the nerves in the respiratory passages, which culminates in a
high-speed air blast that clears away dust, dirt, or excess secretions. Coughing is a vital part of the
body's defense system.
Commonly, the "tickle in the throat" that leads to a cough is caused by postnasal drip from colds,
influenza, or allergies. However, there can be other causes that are more serious. Pertussis (or
whooping cough) is an infection characterized by a severe cough in which there is difficulty in
breathing during coughing episodes and bronchitis is a painful inflammation of the bronchial tubes.
Pneumonia, a very serious inflammation or infection of the lungs, can be viral, bacterial, or fungal. It is
imperative to note that if a cough persists for more than a week, tends to recur, or is accompanied by
a fever, rash, or persistent headache, it could be a sign of a serious condition, and you should consult
a healthcare professional.
Most coughing, however, is not serious; it's not, in itself, a disease. It's just a symptom, which is the
body's method of communicating that something is wrong. The key to dealing safely with symptoms is
to understand and correct the underlying cause(s). With coughing, conventional allopathic medicines
simply stifle and restrain, rather than allow the body to address the cause. Drugstore and grocery
store shelves are lined with cough suppressants, and this temporary solution can be quite
counterproductive.
Think of this analogy: if the oil light in your car comes on while you're driving, do you merely tape over
the warning light and proceed as though nothing is wrong? Or, do you seek to address the underlying
cause(s)? This oil light is a sign (symptom) of an underlying problem. Many medicines merely place
tape over our warning lights (symptoms) and do little for what is causing the warning. This approach
obviously ends up with more serious problems later!
Instead of suppressing a cough, homeopathy activates the body's natural healing potential and
causes it to respond naturally to the underlying causes of the cough. All natural, homeopathic
formulas work safely without any side effects or known drug interactions. While your body is affecting
its defense against a common cough, the following may help to comfort and lessen the effects:
-Dry air often makes coughs worse; use a cool-mist vaporizer in the bedroom, especially during
winter when the air tends to be drier.
-Warm liquids, such as herbal teas, relax the airways and loosen coughs.
-Salt-water nose drops help loosen the thick nasal mucus in the throat.
-Tobacco smoke--first-hand or passive--will make the cough worse.
